Thanks and it is good to have you with the AE team.
I've attached a picture for visual reference only, obviously you would use a setup board. But any calipers will do, I just set the caliper to the desired height and then adjust the droop until it's correct. I set the droop with the shocks on, typically in the front the springs will be pre-loaded which will press down on the arms at full droop so I want to make sure the droop is set correctly with that load applied.

Edit, go figure the picture is sideways but you can still see how I check.
